VLAN ID. With the use of MVRP on both ingress and egress, no manual VLAN
configuration is required to pass tagged traffic through the network.
•
Multiple Stream Reservation Protocol (MSRP): MSRP reserves resources in the
network to facilitate time-sensitive traffic to flow end to end. A typical network includes
multiple talkers (devices that transmit streams) and multiple listeners (devices that
receive streams from one or many talkers). Each flow has specific bandwidth, frame
rate, and time sync requirements. MSRP guarantees these resources through all
intermediate devices between any talker and listener.
With MRP, network attributes are declared, registered, withdrawn, and removed
dynamically without user intervention. This dynamic nature is especially useful in networks
where the following is true:
•
Network attributes are likely to change frequently, requiring reconfiguration of the
intermediate devices.
•
Recipients of these attributes frequently increase or decrease in number.
•
Each of these changes without a dynamic self-adjusting framework would require
constant attention from a network administrator.
